Mass Effect 3 SP Controller Support

[Mgamerz]

I updated the file in the previous link with a new build that should fix your issues:

Radar and descriptions in wheel have returned. I multipled instead of added for the dynamic scaling which made it go offscreen.

Subtitles now are properly placed for this resolution, but its still done manually. One day it will be dynamic I hope.

The healthbar/2power icons at the bottom have been moved down on 16:10 by about 5%, which makes it line up with the weapon info and when entering the wheel. Not sure why this one was off to begin with.

You may want to reset to avoid a bug. Open the mods moddesc.ini and change the modver to 1.073, reload mod manager, check for updates, update, and then apply the files. I changed the script to avoid a bug I have been seeing some users have. Let me know if you find any issues, otherwise I will post it as 1.075.

Everything is pretty much spot on! Did exactly as you said and no major bugs/glitches as of yet. All HUD elements are properly aligned, the wheel text is back, health bar no longer interferes with the wheel and subtitles have been scaled so that they don't overlap the dialogue wheel anymore. The only things worth mentioning bug wise are the tutorial prompts overlapping the health bar, not sure if this is the same regardless of resolution. And when i first started playing the game the health bar would remain in it's place when going in and out of the wheel. It just seems odd that it would raise to the lower end of the wheel like that now. Not sure which one is correct but i do prefer the stationary healthbar. The health bar also feels too close to the bottom of the screen. It was perfect before the new files. But who am i to complain, I can play the game now. Thank you so much for putting in the effort. I look forward to the next big update. Cheers.

I'm not sure why the power bar moves when flying in and out of the wheel. It may not dobitbin PC mode but in Xbox mode it does. Personally I don't see the point but I can't figure out how to turn that off. I moved it down a bit because it seemed... Strange, being offset from the weapon stats. It also was the only way to fix it from flying into the wheel. Maybe I'll see if I can remove the movement animation in one of the frames.

I did notice the hints overlapped but that's a different file and I didn't want to spend a lot of time adding my custom scaling code to that until I got some more feedback.

That would be great if you could. I do prefer the power bar the way it originally was. I like the tiny gap under the weapons HUD, it went well with the power bar. Just wish i could do it with the enemy health bars as well. But anyway thanks again. I'll let you know if anything major pops up. I'd say that's a solid 1.075 update for all the 1920x1200 users out there. I might just be the only one though haha. Cheers

No I've had some requests. I hope to get subtitle scaling in and then all resolutions will work without having to update (like 4K and 5K)

Not sure if this is a game bug or due to the mod. The left hand side seems to be cut off for some reason.

[Mgamerz]

You mean the dimming effect?

[KeffyStay]

Yeah. It doesn't bother me, just thought i'd share in case it's mod related.

FemShep, you deserve a medal for this mod. Really didn't want to use JoyToKey for the whole trilogy, so I'm glad I found this.

Quick question: I use a DS4 w/InputMapper (A program which automatically disguises my DS4 as a 360/One controller via Micro-USB or Bluetooth) when playing all my games. But when I launch the game from the mod manager, It doesn't seem to recognize my controller, and goes straight to a standard Mouse+Keyboard input. Some help would be greatly appreciated, especially for someone like myself who's never modded a game EVER. Thanks.


EDIT: Ok, so I've finally got the controller working, now the only problem is everytime I hit L1 (LB), the power wheel doesn't show. Any suggestions?

Greetings and stuff, I've just registered on here so as to post in this thread, as I've got a comment and a question both. The comment is simply me offering thanks to the modders that brought controller support back to the PC version of ME3 after Bioware or EA or whoever pulled it. I play with a keyboard and mouse, sure, but I grew up with console controls so having it back is a godsend. As for my question, I wasn't sure which forum to post it in, the SP support or the MP support as it pertains to both. Perhaps this question has been addressed in the thread already but I might of missed it.

Specifically, I know you can only have one of the two running, MP or SP but not both or issues arise. I learned that the hard way (stupidly not reading all the literature attached to the mods first) and after an error message, the multiplayer option completely vanished from the main menu. I'm currently reloading the main game and DLC and stuff but my question is this: Is there a simple way to enable one of the two, then deactivate it and switch to the other, and going back and forth when the mood to play SP or MP hits me. I've modded games before but I'm more used to the large scale NMM for games like Fallout and Skyrim so I'm a little green when it comes to the ME3 MM. If the MM can do that, can someone explain how, or if it can't, where you can only have one and only one period, then at least I'd know. Any insight on this is much appreciated. Thank you.
